A reformist movement is a social or political campaign aimed at making gradual changes within an existing system, rather than seeking to completely overthrow it. These movements typically focus on specific issues, such as civil rights, environmental protection, or economic reform, advocating for improvements through legislation, policy changes, or public awareness. Reformists believe that incremental change can lead to a more just and equitable society while maintaining stability.
Rizal was more of a reformist. He wanted the Filipinos to have equal rights as the Spaniards, and he wanted Philippines to be a province of Spain. There was a revolutionist side to Rizal, his alter ego (for the lack of a better term). But it was not his dominant belief.
The Deoband movement began in 1867 with the establishment of the Darul Uloom Deoband seminary in India. It emerged as a response to British colonialism and a desire to preserve Islamic teachings and practices in the face of modernization and reformist trends. The movement emphasized a return to traditional Islamic scholarship and the importance of education in Arabic and Islamic sciences. Deobandism has since become a significant school of thought within Sunni Islam, particularly in South Asia.
The Haji Shariat Ullah movement, known as the Faraiza Movement, emerged in the 19th century in Bengal as a reformist initiative aimed at promoting Islamic practices and principles among the Muslim population. The term "Faraiza" refers to the obligatory duties prescribed in Islam, and Haji Shariat Ullah emphasized the importance of adhering to these duties, including prayers, fasting, and zakat (charity). The movement sought to counteract social injustices, superstitions, and the influence of local customs that deviated from Islamic teachings, ultimately striving for a return to pure Islamic practices.
Mussolini was named Benito after Mexican reformist President Benito Juárez
The Shuddi movement, initiated in the late 19th century in India, aimed to promote the re-conversion of Muslims and Christians to Hinduism. Spearheaded by Hindu reformist groups, particularly the Arya Samaj, it sought to counter perceived conversions to other religions and reinforce Hindu identity. The movement emphasized the importance of Hindu cultural and religious practices, often leading to social and communal tensions. It played a significant role in the broader context of religious revivalism and nationalism during British colonial rule.
